- Technician A says that a sealed-beam headlight that is cracked should be replaced. Technician B says that cracking or breaking of the composite housing or lens does not prevent a halogen bulb from working. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhile diagnosing an HID lamp that does not turn on: Technician A says a smoky or blackened lamp may indicate the bulb is burned out. Technician B says before replacing a suspected bad ballast, check to make sure it is getting power and ground. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhen the headlights are switched from low beam to high beam, all headlights go out: Technician A says that the problem may be a bad dimmer switch. Technician B says that the ignition switch may be bad. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forward
- Which of the following is not a true statement about lamp-out warning lights? The lamp-out warning module measures small changes in voltage levels. An electronic switch in the module completes a ground path for the indicator lights in the event of a bulb going out. A special resistance wire is used in multibulb systems. When a bulb burns out. the module senses the increased voltage drop and turns on the indicator lamp.arrow_forwardTechnician A says that flickering vehicle lights can be caused by a circuit breaker that is kicking in and out due to a short. Technician B says that flickering vehicle lights can be caused by a loose electrical connection. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardTechnician A says that a composite headlight housing that is cloudy should be replaced. Technician B says that clouding or oxidizing of the composite housing or lens may be removed. Who is correct? a. Technician A b. Technician B c. Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forward
- True or False? HID lamps produce more heat and white light than a halogen bulb.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about the SRS warning lamp is not true? When the ignition is first turned on, the indicator should turn on and remain on for approximately 6 seconds. If the system seems to be able to work correctly, the lamp will stay lit as the engine runs. If the lamp flashes or turns off and then turns on again, low source voltage may be indicated. A system problem is indicated when the lamp does not turn on when the ignition is initially turned on.arrow_forwardWhat are the most probable causes for one low-beam headlamp not working?arrow_forward
- Which of the following offer(s) the least protection for your eyes? Face shield Safety glasses Splash goggles Prescription glassesarrow_forwardTrue or False? The headlights on many adaptive head light systems can swivel up to 5 degrees in the direction the vehicle is turning.arrow_forwardWhile discussing solar sensors: Technician A says that a solar sensor is a photo diode that receives a 5-volt reference signal from the control module. Technician B says that when the intensity of sunlight increases, the output voltage increases, and as the sunlight decreases, the output voltage decreases. Who is correct? Technician A only Technician B only Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forward
